A filter of 4.85 or lower in the 40, 280lbs+ and 35” vert at the combine gives three names in the past 15 years. Those names are the best defender in the league (JJ Watt), the highest paid defender in the league (Mario Williams) and Lawrence Okoye. Okoye weighs 305lbs, jumps higher than Tavon Austin and is 0.02 seconds slower in the 40 than Anquan Boldin. Think about that for a second.

He’s never played football before, but he’s already learnt a sport in 4 years – and was ranked 4th in the world in it. At this point in the draft, give me upside. Plus he’s a Londoner – what more could you want?
